“I enjoy working with all walks of people who want to better themselves and their place in life. I meet you "where you are" and take a straight forward yet compassionate approach. Trauma recovery through individual psychotherapy is one of my specialties and passions. I am proud to be one of 12 therapists in the state of NH who is working with the Attorney General's office to assist in the recovery of those who are co-victims of homicide, as well as a member of the NH Disaster Behavioral Health Response Team.

“Life brings many unexpected and sometimes very difficult challenges. Change and transition can be uncomfortable and painful, particularly when it is not what we want or envision.
Through therapy one can gain insight into one's self and come to understand how certain life events impact your life. Through this process of self reflection one can explore how to better manage events outside of one's control, learn more adaptive coping skills and find strategies for dealing with distress. Therapy is a tool to help people develop and improve areas of their lives that ultimately lead to greater inner contentment.

“I respect the fact that starting therapy is not easy. Clients think long and hard before contacting a professional to begin counseling. The connection needs to a be good one, with a sense of comfort and confidence in your therapist. I've been a clinician for 30+ years. My clients find me to be warm, compassionate, experienced. I work with adults, children, adolescents, and families, helping with challenges of anxiety and depression, behavior struggles, and relationship issues. I assist couples with communication and improving life together. Visit www.thegreenhousegroup.net for information about our practice located in the HIstoric Millyard.

“Our mission is to offer an Integrated Approach to Mental Health, and our treatment team is varied in their ability to provide clinical advice, support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. Our treatment team works with clients to find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. Blending conventional and alternative approaches, we draw on a variety of styles and techniques to incorporate what will be most helpful for each client. We will work with clients to help them build on their strengths in order to identify and achieve life goals.

“Everyone faces struggles in their life, and sometimes having a supportive and unbiased person can help make those struggles easier to navigate. Whether you are seeking help for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family I offer an eclectic approach designed to suit your needs. I use a variety of theoretical approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths Based Models, Solution Focused Models, and Motivational Interviewing. I have experience working with trauma, family and couple issues, mood disorders, anxiety, addiction and dual diagnosis, grief and bereavement, anger management, self esteem struggles, and postpartum and women's issues.

“25 years of clinical practice have allowed me to develop an integrated understanding of the complexities of individuals, their families, social networks, and the culture within which they (we) live. I have a deep appreciation for both our fragility and resilience, our capacity to grow, heal, and learn throughout our lives. I operate from a relational and collaborative position tailoring the work to the unique needs and experiences of the individual(s) in my office. Years of practice and training have provided me with an opportunity to learn a variety of techniques and skills that most people find helpful in moving along in their work.

“I am now working in a clinic setting for most of my practice at Harbor Care Health and Wellness Center in Nashua, NH at 45 High Street. My private practice is very limited and is mostly for psychological testing for pain patients and bariatric surgery patients.

“Are you feeling down or anxious? Does your relationship need strenghtening? I can help! With 15 years of experience working with families, couples, and individuals, I am committed to a treatment approach that helps you develop more satisfying relationships with others as well as yourself. I value the therapeutic relationship and encourage a collaborative approach to solve problems and achieve your goals. I look forward to working with you.

“I believe there is a lot of pressure in todays world which can create a sense of imbalance in one's life. I strive to help clients to find balance in their lives and feel more fulfilled. I also work with clients to overcome chronic anxiety, depression and move through the stages of grief with the support they need. In my work with families, I have helped couples who are suffering from breakdowns in communication to reconnect and enjoy one another again.

“As a Harvard-trained clinician in Amherst NH, near Nashua, I evaluate and treat individuals for problems at home, work, or school. Experiences in childhood and later can create anxious or depressed feelings or behaviors that we want to change. I help adults lessen these problems, and I help parents make their relationship with their child more loving and respectful. Early in our work we will design a plan to make the changes you want, using our ideas and formal testing. My goal is to help you make an important change, not only to "manage" what has been bothering you.

“Do you have difficulty with feeling depressed, hopeless, or overwhelmed with stress or anxiety? Do you and your partner have conflict, or do you lack emotional connection or intimacy together? Are there challenges with your adolescent? I offer individual, couples and family therapy. I bring 17 years of experience working with parenting challenges, family conflict, and couple issues such as communication, sexuality, and infidelity. I treat anxiety, trauma, depression, grief/loss, and substance abuse. I bring experience with challenges connected to sexual orientation, a family member coming out, and same-gender relationships, as well as transgender and gender variant individuals.

“Sometimes talking to someone with an objective point of view about your problems can help you think about things in a different way. I work with adolescents and adults coping with a variety of issues including relationship problems, life transitions and adjustment, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, school / work related issues, low self-esteem, infertility, postpartum adjustment, parenting issues and general stress management. I work with people looking for brief, "coaching" sessions to address a specific problem, or with those who have more complex relationship or mood issues who may need longer term support. *Anticipated openings in May, 2015. Please check back at that time.*

“I am a psychologist because I am passionate about helping people change their lives for the better. I will respect your goals and concerns, provide a safe and caring environment, and draw from over 17 years of clinical experience to help you. I am integrative in my approach and draw from many different theories and techniques, depending on your individual needs.

“At WestBridge we focus on helping males age 18 and older who experience serious mental illness (such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder) and co-occurring substance use disorders. Our teams are comprised of clinicians who have experience in integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders. They continuously assess individuals for signs and symptoms of both conditions. Treatment focuses on building healthy coping skills to help the individual and his family manage and recover from both illnesses. WestBridge uses evidence-based practices developed at the Dartmouth Psychiatric Research Center that are designed specifically for individuals with co-occurring disorders. Our approach helps people recover by simultaneously offering mental health and addiction services in the same setting. After a thorough assessment, we develop a personalized treatment plan that builds on the strengths and goals of each individual. WestBridge offers a wide variety of services that our clinical team customizes depending on the stage of change for each participant. Each individual at WestBridge participates collaboratively with their family and their team in an ongoing treatment planning process to create and maintain a Personalized Achievement Agenda, which changes and evolves depending on the stage of recovery that person is experiencing.

“There are times when we all feel overwhelmed. Sometimes, there is too much for us to handle alone and, despite our best efforts, dark feeling states keep coming back. We experience self-doubts, unpleasant reactions and conflict. We feel truly challenged and overwhelmed. Despite all our pain, this is a good time to seek help. Change starts with the desire for something truly better. My goal and commitment is to provide effective treatment that guides my patients through a healing process that makes a difference in their lives. Check out my website for more details. I am looking forward to meeting you!

“As a board certified biofeedback practitioner with advanced training in mind body health, I develop an integrative and individualized approach for each person and problem. Establishing skills and practices that improve mental and physical wellbeing and an internal state of calm, creates the foundation for healthy emotional expression, self-confidence, life skills, self care and effective decision making. My goal is to assist you to improve and enhance your mental and physical well being and quality of life.

“Reaching out for help can be a significant first step when you are stuck and working toward change. Perhaps depression or anxiety are draining your energy. Perhaps you are struggling with one of the key relationships in your life such as with your kids, spouse, significant other, parents, friends, or co-workers. I help individuals, couples, and families move closer to their goals of greater hope, joy, peace, and connection.

“I have been working collaboratively with families and children for over 18 years. I have had the privilege of working with parents who have experienced couple issues due to infertility, parenting conflict, and other life stressors. I create a therapeutic environment that provides the comfort for you to address life's struggles. I believe that people heal in the context of relationships and that in any situation there is hope for change. Please contact me for further information.
